As the seasons change from summer to autumn, Greater Manchester prepares to welcome a series of new dining venues, offering residents and visitors alike fresh culinary experiences. Detroit Slims is set to open its doors in the Circle Square neighbourhood on Oxford Road. This new venture promises a quick-service approach to dining, featuring 10-inch rectangular pizzas that originate from Manchester’s ‘twin city.’ With an inviting starting price of £5, the menu will entice customers with unique dips like Kimchi Mayo and Hot Honey.
El Kabron is the newest addition to Manchester City Centre’s vibrant dining scene. Located on the premises formerly occupied by Bowlers, this establishment will serve Basque-style pintxo and traditional tapas. The venue will also offer a rich selection of beverages, ranging from beers to cocktails, capturing the essence of a lively Spanish tavern.
Almost Famous founder Beau Myers is set to launch Super Awesome Deluxe, a smashed burger outlet in the Northern Quarter. This fast-order takeaway spot will take residence on Thomas Street, replacing the previous Lono Cove cocktail bar. The focus will be on maintaining burger quality, with a limited daily production, crafted in collaboration with renowned butcher Lee “Frosty” Frost.
MUSU Collection is reemerging in Manchester City Centre after a temporary closure. Offering a trio of distinct dining experiences, starting with KAJI, it promises to combine advanced grilling with bold flavours. New chef-patron Steven Smith and executive sushi chef Andre Aguiar will lead this high-end Japanese venture, which aims to captivate the city’s dining enthusiasts.
Amidst these exciting revelations, existing venues are also transforming to bring refreshed perspectives to Manchester’s food scene. Wholesome Junkies is poised to make a comeback at Manchester’s only alcohol-free bar, Hinterland. Known for its vegan twist on classic junk food, the menu will feature favourites like Phish and Chips, while providing health-conscious choices in a family-friendly environment. Meanwhile, The Martlet Kitchen in Rochdale will introduce an upscale culinary addition to the recently revamped Town Hall, offering a blend of Northern classics with a fine-dining twist.
With a diverse and innovative range of new dining options, Manchester continues to establish itself as a vibrant culinary hub.
